Summertime in Boston, and this little tune is about how it goes by way too fast. Some hilarious chatter between the guys before and after they kick of a pseudo-psychedelic groove that I hope you will enjoy.

It was 3 degrees this morning and with a new/used dulcimer in the house, well, the only thing to do is write a song.

It's nice the way this old ghost-ship of a website comes alive any time you post a song....reminds me of the old days, when this place was a real nice musical community.
The song is another good one, too.
This was an attempt at using the keyboard to make an instrumental invoking looking for something, thinking it had been found, then finally finding it. Or, put another way, this was a way to practice piano.
Hello Mike. Thank you for the tips on miking a kit, tips that I’ll definitely take into consideration.
As far as your inquiry of our influences, we’re three dudes who have all been in bands both together and otherwise since the 1980’s. Our influences are all over the place, but I’d say that pop music from the 1960’s looms large with all of us…me especially. Almost all of my tunes are straight-up attempts at capturing that groovy vibe….anything that the Wrecking Crew worked on, as well as the mop-tops.
I’m a genuine fan of your stuff, so please keep ‘em coming.

Good job. It's so clear.....I've been trying to get that clean drum sound the a machine creates and wonder if it's even WORTH having a human drummer!
We'll keep him around for the sake of friendship.

well Reg just wanted to express himself this afternoon so he got to it .....
Freedom to exspress
If I’ve got something to say
Well I’m going to say it
If i got something I want to do
Then I’m gonna do it
I believe…
This song was a favorite of a dear friend we lost a year ago. It felt like a good song to practice the piano. This was the first try -- not that it was good, but it just kept getting worse.
The vocals sound distant because they are... the microphone…
I'm not a stickler for pristine recordings....in fact, there are albums that I insist sound BETTER on old vinyl.
This recording is soulful, raw and terrific. Well done.
I did several quick jams in October, and this was my favorite of the set. I built up the beat on the Deluge and played my favorite xd brass preset live (C# Minor).
Reg decided to go busking down on the subway....
On the subway
Stood on the subway playing my music
As the world rushes by
Lost in a world of my own making
I don’t get washed away in the tide
Its lonely out here where…

Retro sunshine, as only you can!
Somehow you make "you don't love me anymore" still sound upbeat and happy! La La La La La! Love it ;-)
Hi to Joe and and the guys. Nice polish on this. One of my faves.
This hits the spot! I agree with previous comments, Byrds, Kinks, something from a long lost era. The song feels very familiar to me. Very inviting.
great, and funny
You have great atmosphere in your songs.
hilariously good
This is so good! Sounds like the byrds era music. nice lyrics
Brings up the memory of Grateful Dead for me. The song just drifts along to a happy ending. I like the bantar at both ends too.
You guys have a very unique sound! It's very enjoyable.
You should write country music.
Wistful. Right up my alley.
You have a definite "Byrds" sound. really nice.
Playful sparkly stars!
I always get excited when the email comes telling me that you lads have uploaded a new track. Well up to your usual standards, fellas!
Quirky, but good..
Love that distinctive sound of the Proods!! Great lyrics on this....
this is a gooder 'un
Reminds me of those long hot summers of my childhood. A real triumph of a song... retro but timeless. Nice work, chaps!
I enjoyed..........

Cool...I feel like I'm about to watch an episode of Breaking Bad.
Nice...that's some mighty fine pickin' and singin'.

I love it...it's like the Mamas and Papas.
Sounds like the last tune of a rockin' holiday party, right before they kick everyone out.
That baby notice use to be everywhere.....nice rendition. Oops...whoa, kazoo!???

I can almost imagine what X the Astronaut looks like.
😃Nice!

Very nice. Here's hoping you expand on it.....twas a tad brief.
This was not what I was expecting...cool.
Great. Y'all are true Rockers.
Amazing.

Love this.
Definitely makes me wish I had a better keyboard!
Ooh….very nice. I’ll be back to listen to this.
So good!
Wow….soulful.
